I read:

The Google logo can literally be played. To do so, simply click on the keys, while with the mouse it is possible to adjust the numerous available potentiometers, in order to generate a series of different effects. Finally, the buttons positioned on the recorder allow you to save your performance.

To play the doodle dedicated to Robert Moog, you can click on the Minimoog with your mouse, or use the numbers on your keyboard. The instrument allows you to record up to 4 overlapping tracks, which makes it easier to create elaborate music and use the typical effects of the synthesizer. In fact, the upper part of the doodle contains the set of knobs that made Moog's invention famous: interacting with them allows for the creation of new sounds and expressive possibilities that, in the days of the Minimoog (1960s), gave rise to new styles, new fashions, and new opportunities.

In a little while they will give us a symphonic orchestra in Javascript to play with the mouse.
